An Acumatica User Group

Future of Cloud ERP?

by

Here is a good article pointing out that the cloud hype hasn't reached the ERP world yet and maybe never will. Acumatica is positioned for this by allowing their customers to buy and host Acumatica on-premise. NetSuite, on the other hand, only allows the SaaS option. http://panorama-consulting.com/what-is-the-surprising-future-of-cloud-erp/ This reminds me of the Western Digital commercial that I posted a link to a few months … [Read more...]

Project Quote Form

by

Michael Coman started a discussion on how to create a Project Quote form in Acumatica over on the Acumatica ERP Software User Group. I came up with something very simple which hopefully will be a good start. This was my first experience actually doing a real report/form with the Acumatica Report Designer. It definitely has a long way to go before becoming a user-friendly report designer like Crystal or SSRS. But, it is pretty flexible and, once you get the hang of it, it's not too … [Read more...]

Jon Roskill Open Invitation

by

Jon Roskill, the new CEO at Acumatica, posted something on the Acumatica website: http://www.acumatica.com/blog/an-open-invitation-from-jon-roskill-why-i-joined-acumatica There are two things that he said which stood out to me that I completely agree with and have noticed about Acumatica since I have been following it for about a year now: … [Read more...]

Acumatica LinkedIn Group Comparisons (Part 1)

by

I thought it might be interesting to periodically check how the Acumatica groups on LinkedIn compare to some other ERP groups on LinkedIn. I looked up 18 different ERP groups on LinkedIn (including Acumatica) to compare their number of members and number of discussions posted this month in order to gauge how large and how active they are. Now, this is not a very accurate method to try and determine how large the user base is for these ERP products and how active they are, but I think it's still … [Read more...]

Looking to the Future

by

This week I put together a document called Case For Ending Sage 500 Maintenance (click the link to see the PDF document). My company currently pays a very sizable sum of money every year to Sage for the privilege of upgrading to the latest version of Sage 500 ERP. In recent years, however, it has become apparent that this money would be better spent on other things. In contrast, each new version of Acumatica is providing substantial new features. Even the upcoming release of the lowly … [Read more...]

Customer Portal

by

It looks like Acumatica will be adding a customer portal: http://web.archive.org/web/20140404223740/http://www.acumatica.com:80/blog/customer-lifecycle-management-in-acumatica This is good news. Customers will now have access to Acumatica University which has become a great repository of Acumatica learning material. Also, this is another logical step in the direction of Acumatica becoming an ERP provider that is here to stay. … [Read more...]

“Help -> Get Link” Example Using Excel

by

My last post was about hyperlinks and I'd like to continue on the same theme in this post, but use an actual example in Excel. Sometimes it would be nice to make an Excel file that contains hyperlinks to the actual screens in Acumatica for each record that you're viewing. In this example, I'm going to take a simple list of vendors in Excel and add a hyperlink to each vendor ID that will drill into the Vendors (AP303000) screen in Acumatica for that vendor. Basically, all you need to do is the … [Read more...]
